I am a practitioner of Uechi-ryu since 1988, and I have always been interested in Ryuei-ryu but I never practiced it. It´s an amazing style. But today you can find Ryuei-ryu dojos in Europe, Argentina, Chile, Venezuela, USA, so it´s not a secret style anymore.
Я занимаюсь каратэ с 1980 года и уверен, что лучше придерживаться своего стиля, а если хочется проверить себя и подраться то есть хорошая возможность в клетке ММА.
@@uvw456-s MMA is a sport. Traditional Okinawa martial arts are for self defense. You will never see a Krav Maga, or a Penjack Silat, or an Okinawan traditional Karate practitioner on a cage fight, because it doesn´t work that way. I tested Uechi-ryu many times in real situations because I worked as a police officer for many years. It is very effective. We must practice martial arts with a huge sense of responsability. Combat sport is something else.
All known Karate styles are linked to Shuri-Te, Naha-Te or Tomari-Te. These 3 towns Shuri, Naha and Tomari are very close together but Okinawa is much bigger. So I asked myself if there arent any unpopular quite different styles. Even Ryuei Ryu was located close to Naha and doenst look so much different than other Karate styles.
@@kirkstonebotanicalsforgrow5424 Correct though he be, I believe @Fwibos was making memetic reference to Jesse "The Karate Nerd" Enkamp's "catch phrase" that Okinawa is the birthplace of karate, followed by another memetic reference (broadly internet-cultural) by referring to @kaifinn, who seemed not to catch the reference to Jesse Enkamp, as "not a gentleman of culture" - a meme which implies that only cultured individuals understand the OP's references, which I personally typically read as a tongue-in-cheek bit of fun poked at both the referencer and the one who missed the reference.

Some stiles only are on Okinawa, also some families. Others come to Japan and others gain the world. And finally internet is join all together. The problem on my point of view are federations and championship games.
Absolutely. I went to Okinawa 3 times, to learn more about Uechi-ryu, and I´ve met some Karate practitioners who only practiced their family style. No federation, nothing outside theis style. The more incredible Uechi-ryu sensei I met was outside any federation or group of Karate. I trained in his house, with one student oh his (they said he had only 5 students). They had no graduations, it was all very old school. But very painful.

@Gieszkanne No all of them. Uechi-ryu came from chinese Pangai Noon. It has nothing linked to the styles you mentioned. There is a very little martial art in Okinawa called Udonti, there is Kingai-ryu, Hakutsuru Ken, and yes there are secret family styles. Ryuei-ryu is now known outside Okinawa. But when a style go outside Okinawa to be practiced by other people by other cultures there is always changes done by the masters. I studied many years by the pioner of Karate in Europe, sensei Henry Plée, and he used to say that what is taught to 99% of people in all dojos are juste 1/3 of the first level (exoteric level). It's like an iceberg.
@kof_yabuki-otakugamer99 do you have records of this? I'm really big into the lore of Tekken and martial arts, anywhere Ive looked into this, this style is not mentioned only Goju-ryu style.
This always happens. Why do you think there are so many different Kung Fu styles. There are even differences within one style depending on the lineage.
Yes, technique always beats pure strength, you don't have to be physically stronger than your opponent, in order to beat him, you need to know body mechanics, and strike the pressure points, even soft strikes can be very painful, and even knock a big 7 foot man out!
@@pauljohnson6019 with proper positioning you can be someone bigger and stronger than you but without any strength you are a weakling and you’ll get creamed no matter what.
Хороший стиль, по технике и динамике схож с Goju ryu, но не так тщательно разработан, как Goju ryu. Можно заметить, что некоторые ката стиля были созданы уже в наше время.
You can't practice your karate with full force in competition either. Many, many techniques are illegal (e.g. rabbit punch, elbow to the back of the head, certain chokes) and many others are heavily modified (for example, even in competitive systems where eye gauges are permitted, they are usually taught with the palm down). You've also got the issue that competition usually involves one-on-one interactions, which permit you to get down on the ground and grapple with someone without worrying about someone else coming up and hitting you in the head with something. If you want to learn street-effective martial arts, look at what is taught in the military or in systems for certain police forces.
@ 1. If you look at what the military teaches it’s basic mma for the most part. 2. The main focus for the military is to kill People they use weapons for this hand to hand is for when you’ve lost all your weapons. What do you mean certain police forces also? Also your argument does prove that ryeui- ryu doesn’t suck btw.
@@RLopez-oo9iu karate is what kung fu guys wish it was. Karate has a lot of people that have show it’s an effective martial art. GSP, lyota machida, Bas Rutten, Andy Hug, semmy schlit, Nicholas Pettas, the list goes on.
@ I hold a black belt in Tang Soo Do which is a Korean interpretation of Shotokan and I could tell you it’s extremely effective in street combat and self defense situations, I value any style of karate to me they’re all good 👍🏼

I must learn more about this. Respect
Nothing you say about this style is all that unique. The same principles are found in other Okinawan styles.
Now you need to look into Ryu Te. Seiyu Oyata lineage.
Great idea for the next video!
i just love karate it so good to learn i wish i knew karate so i can defend myself 👊🥋
Good luck with it!
Okinawa? The Birthplace of Karate!
sure, and if you go further back then the chinese white crane style is the origin of karate.

I don't understand why Okinawans changed Kung-Fu at all - did they find it somehow inferior - did they think they were improving it???

Things get watered down. As it goes from one hand to another, it isn't the same anymore.

old Ryukyu islands karate was originally from South China kung fu
Oh yea?? I know a more rare style, only one guy does it!! Ron ryu
I will check it out if it isn't joke 😜
Hyyyyaaahhh!
Karate of any type is simply Kung Fu done badly.
Yet Kung Fu practitioners constantly get their ass kicked by everybody 😂😂😂😂
Done badly? I wouldn’t exactly say that, it’s extremely effective in repelling attacks. I have the utmost respect for karate practitioners.👊🏻🥋
